  • LW: I'll have samples of chocolate (small) -- need something to counteract it -- maybe goldfish crackers (at the build space) and carrots or apples?
      • If you get a chance, maybe make sure they've eaten something non-sugary before coming?
      • SALLY: Let's make ice cream the following week

  • 2 teams: Build something from the chocolate production or from Whole Foods
    • 2 teams: Ryan, Ethan, Jeremy, Canaan; Emily, Arianna, Matthew, Gray, Anna Grace
    • Older team -- I'd like to facilitate a discussion and see if they can decide together what to make as more of a team decision
